Erotic Movement + Mojo

I never thought a trip to the dentist would open the world of erotic, pleasurable movement in my life.

But life tends to surprise you like that.

In 2002, I had some intense dental work. It took many appointments and months to complete.

Despite having a phenomenal dentist, it was quite grueling.

My body was tense with holding all of the fear that came with the procedures and clearly, my mouth, jaw and head ached plenty.

As an act of sheer generosity to aid the healing, my dentist gifted me a massage with a ‘special woman he knows.’ Talk about a great dentist!

The moment I laid on her table, I knew something profound was about to occur. And truly my life hasn’t been the same.

Rie Katagiri is a healer, sorceress of sensuality and body wizard.

For the past 15 years, we have become friends and colleagues. She is my trusted resource for honoring the feminine power within our bodies and bringing her out to play. Rie is one of the tried and true who walks her talk. She consistently and consciously evolves to hone her skills, bring more value and raise the awareness on a topic that, sadly, is still taboo in too many circles. Her fierce dedication to all this is a testament to why Hollywood continues to seek her out to train actors in being expressed with their bodies.

Whenever I have the pleasure of a 1:1 healing session or taking a class with Rie, a new level of appreciation for my body emerges. Specifically, the level of sexual energy (aka life force/M.O.J.O) that flows through it. Without this energy, life is dull and stressful. Rie helps midwife that energy into your life.

She is the founder of Erotic Movement Arts: a multi sensory, pleasure based, conscious movement and fitness experience for women. Part sacred temple, part boudoir – through pole and the many layers of erotic dance, EMA offers a space for embodied creativity and is a gentle yet powerful gathering space for women.

Now THAT’S #mojolcious!

Big love,

PS. Rie has been a special guest speaker at the Rock Your Mojo Women’s Weekend and teaches classes in Los Angeles.
